Meinl Sonic Energy Chakra Gongs

For the production of the Meinl Sonic Energy Chakra Gongs the calculation of Hans Cousto, a Swiss mathematician and musicologist who discovered the natural law of the cosmic octave, is used. This calculation allows the gongs to be tuned to a specific frequency.

The Chakra Gongs from Meinl Sonic Energy are handmade by the gong makers in order to guarantee the highest possible sound sensitivity in every playing situation. Their mystical sound is created by hours of extensive processing of the metal and is very atmospheric and relaxing.

What are Chakras?

Chakras originate from the Tantric traditions that developed in ancient India. They are focal points for meditation within the human body, which are visualized as structures of energy resembling discs or flowers located where the energy channels (also known as meridians) converge.

These energetic centers are located along the spine. Everybody has them. They can be thought of as rapidly rotating wheels, which is why they are also called energy wheels.

If the flow of energy is interrupted or obstructed, it is called a blockage, which can reinforce feelings of anxiety and separateness. In order to remove these blockages, an attempt is made to stimulate the respective chakra, using various therapeutic approaches.
